Community Tasting Note

    November 14, 2014 - Wine-Pages Offline - London (Vinoteca, Soho): {cork, 13.5%} (Phil & Sonia) Aged, wax and lanolin flavours, not without an oxidative character, but enticing none-the-less. Medium/full-bodied, with softening acidity, yes, but this is gloriously at peak; near-20 year-old Roussanne might be something of an acquired taste, but this coats the palate so evenly and with such majestic presence that surely even those unsympathetic to its character could appreciate it. Wonderful; but drink now obviously, unless you’re determined to gamble further with cork!
